Upgrading to whonix 15

[Steven Walker]

I am a virtual newbie to qubes. I am using 4.0.1 on a thinkpad T420. I would like to upgrade from whonix 14 to 15 without screwing anything up.

Can anyone advise?

Uninstall old whonix-14 Reinstall new whonix-15 search this forum
then ask

https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Qubes/Install


it may look more complicated than it is ; because of the formatting


start at the start , learn the terminology , your just changing the
appvms to not reference the whonix-14 templates then removing the
templates via dom0

and either running the script or reinstalling the same way most
templates are installed via dom0


only trick may be changing the "jinja" config file
from -14 to -15

though if you read the thread some folks didn't remove -14 before
installing -15 and apparently that may be "safe" also

Jon deps:

Or if you've made template customizations you want to keep you can
upgrade your existing templates.

https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Upgrading_Whonix_14_to_Whonix_15

Just clone your templates first and follow the upgrade procedure on the
clones. Then once you've confirmed everything works as expected and
switched your appvms over to the new template you can remove the
original ones.
